**Permaculture Principle: Observe and Interact**
Rabbits trimming cannabis buds

Last season, a cannabis branch broke and fell onto the ground in the rabbit colony. I noticed the rabbits did a pretty good job of eating all the fan leaves and some sugar leaves but seemed to leave the buds alone. Since it was on the ground, the buds were pretty dirty and I didn't end up doing anything with it, but I kept the observation in mind.

Recently a branch broke off one of the plants and was hanging tangled up with the rest. I took the opportunity to do a little test to see if the rabbits would trim the bud again. I hung the branch on the fence for several days, and to my surprise, they did an excellent job trimming!

Trimming the cannabis is the most labor intensive step of the cannabis production system here. I'm looking forward to using the rabbits to trim the cannabis at scale for me this year. They do the work, get a free meal, and I get the product and a free meal too! All thanks to that observation last season and a little interaction with it this season given the opportunity.
